Bit surprised to see Lenglet instead of Torres. Other than that, looks attacking and Zaniolo back on the bench.

Diaby, sort yourself out lad, make a solid contribution.  Morgan, score another at VP.

Good news that Alan Wright had found his old boots to help out with the left back issue.

He does have the air of a fella shaped from expensive porcelain. Best keep him safe for Sussex on Sunday.

I would imagine the Pau decision is based on his earlier injury and workload.

Olsen and Lenglet potential weak links but they both had decent games in various games so fingers crossed they can do the same tonight.

Lenglet's played 23 games for us in our best season in 28 years.  He's a decent player. He'll be fine.

Torres didn't feature every week in the group stages either, did he?
